The RNLI at Beaumaris were called out this afternoon at 3.26pm to Ynys Gorad Goch in the Menai Strait following the report of an injured man on the rocks.
On arrival at the scene, the volunteer lifeboat crew were joined by two paramedics who immediately started to treat the casualty. As the tide was receding it was felt it was too slippy to carry the casualty over the rocks to the lifeboat, so the helicopter was called out which then transported the man to Ysbyty Gwynedd.
This was the second call out of the day for the RNLI Beaumaris lifeboat following an earlier incident at 1.18pm, which was to tow a 26ft powerboat with engine failure from Beaumaris to Gallows Point.
The RNLI is a registered charity that relies on voluntary donations to provide its lifesaving service. To make a donation call 0845 121 4999.
